Feeling and making others feel important is essential for success

You work with people. All the time, the major contribution to your success comes from the people you work with. It is thus important that you make the right choice of people you work with, work for. Irrespective of the role they play, if you are associated in a day-to-day basis, people have an important contribution to make. It can be the driver of your cab, lift-operator at work, the receptionist at the front office, your boss, peers, friends and your customer, leave alone parents and loved ones at home. Everyone has a major contribution towards how you feel and perform, every day.

When you feel important, you feel charged and perform higher than normal. Likewise, when you make others feel important, they perform higher than their normal. When people around you notice how genuinely you make them feel important, they develop an affinity towards best performance just enough to make you successful. It is a chain reaction. A positive one. When everyone around is performing at their best to make you perform at your best, the craft you build becomes remarkable.

Make sure that you respect and engage with everyone around you. Make them feel important. You will become important to them. This makes you maintain the same feeling within and succeed routinely.
